I'm no travel guru, so recommendations are welcome.
jolly ol' england not take your fancy? (its true we don't have much)
Well he has been to York which is, in my opinion, one of the more aesthetically pleasing cities in our jolly ol' england :) Surprising though, most foreigners you would obviously expect to have visited London if anywhere. I personally would like to go to Morocco and South Africa if we are talking places in Africa. Been to Egypt as only place in Africa.
true i noticed york, just, as you say are suprised london isn't on here. i'm personally not a fan of london, i prefer seaside areas such as cornwall. some great cities include birmingham, Manchester, and worcester.
South Africa, yeah, i'd want to go there got an old friend there who lives there now i'd like to visit
I'd like to see the museums in London, maybe, but otherwise I'm not too interested. England is basically a tiny United States, but everything is smaller and the food is much worse.
I think London is one of the coolest cities i have ever been, so much stuff to do, but i think i got lucky because it didn't rain in the 3 days i was there.
Now the sights at Worcester, and Shrawley is really beautiful, so green.
wow you've been to worcester ,ace, i'm glad you enojyed, where did you go well you were there?
Warwick Castle, i was at the house of a friend of my mother, i only stayed there for 4 nights, so i didn't do much, the house was in a beautiful estate, he takes care of the garden of a rich family. His wife teaches spanish at a local college, i went out with her and some of her students who wanted to see a spanish speaker in the flesh, we went to have lunch at a cafe, got into a boat in Seven river, and also went to a very old church in Worcester.
Oh yeah, i forgot the day before we went to Warwick castle, i went to an open air building museum, one of the coolest places i've ever been, its a museum made up of old houses, mills, and other type of buildings, they also have a lot of old phones there.
i went to england and usa and as you said it really looks like a tiny usa, but the food is much much better in england...
this of course does not apply for ny, where you have excellent restaurants and food in general....
Oops, I actually meant that I think the food is much worse in England. It's boring.

That's just not true.
